      same with my old lenovo laptop, i shorted both the power and data pins literally hundreds of times while tinkering with microcontrollers, and all it did is disable the ports until a reboot

      It is definitely HP just being HP.

      Other non HP machines we have are just fine if you short the USB-A ports
